thats cool .....if you need a set up or help setting it i can give you a few pointers ....i raced mine with the plastic ones for a while and it went ok for the mst .but id still recommend getting ally ones in the future

Okay im sorry about all these questions. I hope this question will be the last one. On the screw that goes through the diff there is a washer with a groove all the way. I think i lost one of them (there is two) can i use a regular washer or can i only use a grooved washer? Man god doesnt like me!

The parts i need is not in stock at modelsport the kit is sitting om the table and i have absolutely nothing to do!

The washer is the thrust washer and it must be the same as the on you have lost or you will have nothing but diff problems

[Benjab]

And its not in stock anywhere so i gotta wait at least a week before i can get the car builded.

There are 2 washers with grooves that sit either side of the thrust washer. You can get away with 1 of them being replaced with a non grooved one. Be thankful you haven't got an associated B4, 2 washers, loose bearings and held together with diff grease.

hmmmmmmmm ...well as i said i think i got some so if you get stuck let me know ill send you one

[wayne]

but there is always the b-fast option

[Benjab]

I dont think i will need the b-fast diff. There are a few shops in Denmark that sells ansmann parts so im gonna mail them if they have the parts in stock.

But thank you Wayne! (and everybody else)

hey no worries ......any other questions feel free to ask ...or anything else ,itas no problem

[Benjab]

Hey! I just wanted to say i got the parts! Its pretty good but i only have 3s lipos so i had to use nimh. I will have to get a 2s ASAP! The gear cover touches the pinion and motor axle so i will have to cut some of it away. Have you guys had any problems with that?

But thanks for the help!

[minke]

Not had that problem. The cover shouldnt really be cut, its there to keep the dirt out, It is supposed to clip on firmly befor the 2 screws go in, although it can require persuasion past the turnbuckles if they are still attached. Make sure the pinion is on the right way round also.

[Benjab]

Okay so i moved the pinion like 2mm and now it doesnt rub on the cover.

Now i just need good weather!
